FINANCIAL IMPACT: The additional fees will help defray the cost of services provided to <br />dental health patients by the Health Department. The overall cost recovery of the occulsal <br />guard is projected at approximately 48% of the full charge for the service due to the percent pay <br />class of the patients served by the Health Department. This is approximately the same cost <br />recovery as all of the services provided by the dental health service program and should not <br />impact the overall budget of the Department because this service is provided in the same time <br />frame with the same staff as other dental services. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board approve a fee of $274 for <br />occlusal guard, a $95 lab charge for the occlusal guard, and $92 for alveolplasty by quadrant. <br />
